Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 7m Blue

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CU PVC Ethernet Cable is a durable 7 m network cable designed for data transmission up to 1000 Mbit/s. It uses RJ-45 connectors with gold plating to support stable connections and reduced signal loss. The cable is available in copper (CU) construction with U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair) topology and a PVC jacket; the blue color provides a clear visual identifier for network setups.

Advantages

This CAT5e cable features reinforced strain relief and a snagless latch design to protect the connector during installation and handling. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve contact reliability and help minimise corrosion and signal degradation. The U/UTP construction reduces crosstalk and interference in typical home and office environments while maintaining compatibility with 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections between routers, switches and computers
• LAN setups in home and small office environments
• Connecting network devices requiring up to 1 Gbit/s throughput
• Patch panels and wall ports where a 7 m cable length is appropriate

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to your network device (router, switch or computer) and the other to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure the connectors click into place with the latch engaged. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; use cable ties or clips if needed to secure the cable along walls or racks. Test the link status on connected devices to confirm a proper 10/100/1000Base-T(X) connection.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the Ethernet cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources. For longer runs or environments with high interference, consider higher-category shielded cables.
